Wakíŋyaŋ, I am who I am, the salt of the earth. Thunderbird is an allegory; his conflicts with other forces in nature are then an attempt to allegorize relationships observed in the natural order, such as the changing of the weather. He is essentially an attempt to represent the patterns of activity of a powerful, mysterious force in a way that can be understood simply and easily – sort of the way in which a weather map functions today. Moving from18x60x60 = 64,800 seconds in 18 hours. 64800x860(ppfd) = 55,728,000 umol per daylight. Into Flower 12x60x60 = 43,200 seconds in 12 hours. 43200x1145(ppfd) = 49,464,000 umol per daylight. It's asking a lot of Rubisco regeneration to maintain 50 DLI in the 12 instead of 18. Raised the ambient CO2 to 1200 to 1500 ppm to achieve efficient gas exchange. Not particularly recommended, but adding sugar to an indoor growing medium is a highly effective way to stimulate microbial activity, which rapidly breaks down the sugars and releases CO2 through cellular respiration. You can safely capture this CO2 to fertilize indoor crops and boost photosynthesis. While this process works, the setup requires precise understanding and management to avoid common indoor growing hazards. The plant Carbon to Nitrogen C:N ratio defines the balance between structural carbon (sugars/cellulose) and nitrogen (proteins/enzymes). It acts as a master regulator of plant health, growth, and metabolism. Rubisco (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) is the engine of photosynthesis responsible for fixing atmospheric CO2 into sugars. It is intimately tied to the C:N ratio for three primary reasons. It is the Plant’s Biggest Nitrogen Sink, Drives the Carbon Side, and it is the Nitrogen Control Knob. Understanding this relationship allows you to predict how plants respond to environmental stress or fertilizer. Rubisco acts as the primary storage sink for leaf nitrogen, accounting for up to 30% to 50% of a C3 plant's soluble protein. Deep Green Leaves signal a rich abundance of both chlorophyll and Rubisco proteins. The plant possesses the heavy enzymatic machinery required to handle 1145 PPFD. Pale or yellowing leaves indicate a nitrogen deficiency. The plant is actively breaking down its own Rubisco to salvage nitrogen for newer growth, drastically reducing its light-tolerance threshold. Subtle difference, but understanding is important in order to be able to judge when to dial light intensity up and light intensity down, when to push, and when to back off. An extra dose of magnesium is vital if a plant is going to push through the growing pains of high-intensity lighting. Foliar application of magnesium is an excellent and rapid way to assist with Rubisco regeneration within a plant, so long as it is applied correctly. Spray strictly in the early morning or late evening, mixing your magnesium with a little fulvic acid or chelator, but only when she gets a little limey on top. This, for me, is the experience of growing, akin to "riding the surf" maintaining efficient Rubisco regeneration through visual identification of the shade of green. Surf a razor-thin wave when balancing light intensity, nutrient availability, and transpiration to maximize Rubisco enzyme efficiency. Keeping the Calvin cycle fully charged without tipping into nutrient toxicity, light stress, or the dreaded chlorosis requires paying close attention to the visual cues the plant provides. By monitoring these subtle shifts in color, turgor pressure, and leaf posture, you adjust your environmental controls and surf that exact razor-thin wave. Nute recycling acts as the vital execution mechanism for autophagy, which defines senescence. Natural senescence is a genetically programmed developmental stage aimed at nutrient recycling, whereas triggered autophagy is a rapid survival response activated by environmental stress. While both processes utilize the vacuole to break down cellular material, their triggers, selectivity, and overall goals are entirely different. Cannabis plant senescence is not separate from nutrient recycling protocols; rather, nutrient recycling is the primary physiological purpose of senescence, and autophagy serves as the core switch mechanism executing both processes. Takes about 24 to 48 hours to notice visible changes once the signals have initiated the autophagic response. Not too late at all. A little bit of fade from senescence 2 weeks from harvest is normal and genetically expected. Send the C:N 32:1 signal 1 week from harvest for the best effect in your organic grow. Understanding what makes leaves fade is not always senescence, but also strongly linked to Rubisco regeneration. That's a whole other subject. Vital to understand the differences if you want a correct diagnosis and to transition from hobby grower to master stoner, differentiating between a true genetic fade and a decline in photosynthetic proteins. Nitrate is nitrate, whether it oxidizes or not is not up for debate. If it's not sunk by the plant you are smoking some if not all of, it's regardless of what your feelings are on the matter. Senescence is highly critical. It is the natural end-of-life stage where the plant redirects energy to ripen flowers. Properly managed, it breaks down harsh chlorophyll, allowing the terpenes (which provide taste and aroma) to peak. Harvesting outside this window leads to an "unripe" or degraded flavor comparable to going without. To initiate the response you seek, you can trigger it multiple ways, when growing synthetically its triggered by nutrient starvation, generally when the entire medium is flushed. This is more to do with N starvation than being entirely empty. Nonetheless. PK boosters are N starvation through maximizing P and K. (Generally only works for synthetic grows) Normally, a medium only holds 10-30% of its nitrogen as ammoniacal ta part boosts this to 50% as it triggers the "ripen" signal, but you don't want to keep ammoniacal above 30% for more than 7-10 days if you can help it. Its a trigger mechanism no more. PK BOOST with 50% ammoniacal N signals floral maturation. PK BOOST with N starvation signals nutrient recycling/sinking. Because you are using organic nutes and you want to maintain the rhizosphere, what you want to do is add carbon in the form of sugars (powdered molasses). It's almost impossible to empty a medium enough when microorganisms are constantly releasing nutrients into the direct EC. Very difficult to initiate starvation responses with ammoniacal nitrogen. Manipulating the C:N ratio is the key to triggering an autophagic response and resulting nutrient recycling in the last days using organic nutes and without having to flush. Generally not recommended for new growers. So do what you want. But if you don't trigger the plant to dump its nitrates into root zones, you will smoke nitrates as NO3- does not oxidize during the dry and cure no matter what you do or how long you dry or cure. Doesn't matter what anyone "feels" about it, how many grows they had with no fade. "Clover steals valuable nutrients." Crop and drop the clover come flipping to flower, its benefit comes from creating an airy and porous rootzone. I don't need to crop and drop once the plant fills the canopy, she blotches out the light, and the clovers die. This is the nitrogen the microorganisms use to convert carbon for respiration throughout the flowering stage.

07 august 2018, thick buds are al;ost ready for harvest. Will let it for couple weeks. Today gonna stop using Plagron and pass to clear water.

Week 5

.

I just fed for the last time a few days ago. I can tell she is getting ready because she is not drinking anymore. I think I will flush and let the soil dry then I will chop. She will be down by the end of February. I can't wait....this is the first photo I have ever grown. And I think I am stuck!!! She took about 5 or 6 weeks longer than the autos I've been growing but she is going to give me twice as much, and her buds are rock hard. Can't wait to see how they are when the are dried and cured!!

Wir Starten Woche 8. Ich werde ab jetzt Probieren regelmäßiger zu updaten. --- Es geht nächste Woche für fast 10 Tage in den Urlaub und dann muss die kleine absolut alleine klar zu kommen (in der Zeit gibt es leider keine Updates). Für mich ein spannendes Experiment

so now we are targeting the last mixture change in our tank before using strict water for the finish. There are still a couple of liters in the tank, but in couple of days the change will come to AN overdrive mix with EC around 1750-1850 at PH 5.85😇😇😅😅 The Zillions and Cookie Casket are coming to the sweet spot first, I think 14-18 days before harvest. This week I have focused on the Cookie Caskets in my growtent, they will be the first to harvest probably. I think and hope they will be delicious! at least they look delicious...😂😅😅 To add: I now shiftet downwards the lightstress to 800ppfd on top level and aroun 400-550ppfd on the 2nd and 3rd level from top for the finishing line. The current VPD is between 1.2-1.25 which should be perfect for the late stage of flowering.

Day 52 to 59 These girls are on autopilot been chasing VPD a bit opening flaps and closing them on the tent until it's as close as I can get but other then that it's a no brainer right now

Week 9 Pure water feeding

Hello everyone, Week 10 of veg started yesterday and think 7 to 14 days more in veg is enough. 1 plant stretched perfectly to fill a 120x120cm tent the other one needs about 14 days maximum and the last one is a dwarf plant and i don't expect a big yield from this plant I'm regretting putting her in a 10 gallon pot totally disappointed. My ph meter was 0,3 ph to high so when i was watering thinking the ph was 5.7 in fact it was 5.4 so gave them a good feeding with a ph of 6.0 and 30 procent runoff. Thanks for stopping by and have a good one. Best regards, Growfather

End of week four. I cant believe the growth this last 7 days. Had to double check my calendar. Pyramid seeds is one of my favorite seed companies, extremely hard to get in the states!

relaxing and enjoying the show almost at max watts SPIDER FARMER SF2000 is now maxed out at 207w , 16"-18" from the plants and I will need to keep up with pruning to allow more air flow and more light to penetrate deeper into the plant. 2, 6" oscillating fans on 100%, may be on low or just one stationary but at this point in the grow air flow is a MUST, specially for the thick, dense vegetation of the OG Kush. trying my hardest to stick with the 4" ventalation til the end of the grow. Right now I have to replace the exhaust ducting due to tiny pin holes leaking more than a bit of light.

What up fam, harvested these gorgeous ladies for fresh frozen and washed/pressed it. The sweet smell followed by the funkiness of the gorilla is wild. The wash return on this one was 2.5% but what it lacked in the % in made up on the press giving 90% returns. One I'll definitely be growing again as I made carts with it a wow oh wow did the smell transfer over to the taste as it leaves you smacking your lips. Wet weight came out to 2k grams and I got back 45g of fresh frozen live Rosin.

It is really growing fast. รดน้ำทุกๆ 2-3 วัน 🥦 หลังจากตัดก้านหลักในวันที่ 15 รู้สึกว่ามันโตไวมาก ผ่านมา 5 วัน เห็นความต่างได้ชัด Happy 420 :) 🍀

Buenos días familia, nos acabamos de levantar y como buen viernes , actualizamos la 4 semana de floración. Las lemon kush en este caso, empiezan a desprender un aroma cítrico y a pino bastante agradable, las flores están formándose sin problema alguno. El Ph lo regulamos a 6.5 siempre, está semana que viene retiramos big bud y aportamos OVERDRIVE de advanced nutrients.

Gave her last feed yesterday, thinking tomorrow, maybe later tonight, i will start with a flush for 7-10 days going by trichomes some are still clear but i think most are cloudy and a couple ambers here and there.

Only new for this week is that topmax dose increased to 4ml/L. There was a light defol made on HC#2. Some leaves from main stem that had kept few buds hidden were removed.
